BLUEVALE SPRING SHOW AND SALE
WAS AN EX CELLENT SUCCESS
Bluevale Spring Show and Sale was
a great success on Tuesday afternoon
April 20th, despite the fact that the
roads were almost impassable, witc.
too much bare ground for sleighing
and too much snow on the hills for
wheeling. This show was held under
the auspices of the Turnberry Agri-
cultural Society and it is likely to be-
an annual event. There were in
the neighborhood of 2-5- horses and
30 cattle on exhibition. The judges
were, Horses, Thos. Morgan, Ripley;
'Cattle, Henry Johann, Belmore and
Thos. Fells, Wingliam; Pigs, W. J.
Currie, East Wawanosh.
The success of the show is due to
the untiring efforts of Wesley Legatt,
John MacEwen, Isaac Wright, Ray-
mond Elliott, Wilfred Murchison,
Cloyne Higgins and others. T. R.
Bennett of Wingham was the auction
eer. Mr. Legatt had a big display of
Tudhope-Anderson farm implements.

The Great Exhibition of 1851
Seventy five years ago, on the lot
May, 1851, the first international ex-
hibition in the history of the world
was opened by Queen Victoria in
Hyde Park, London. .
The idea of the exhibition originat-
ed with Prince Albert, the husband
of the Queen, who first proposed it
at a meeting of the Society of Arts,
of which he was the president. In',
the first half of last century success- '
ltd. exhibitions had been helcl in most

of the European capitals, but in ev-
ery case the exhibits had been con-
fined to products of its own country,
and it occurred to the Prince, who
took a keen interest in all that tend-
ed to promote industrial progress and
to improve the public taste, that a
similar exhibition in London open to
competitors from all nations would
be useful in many ways, especially
in uniting together the peoples of dif-
ferent countries by the bonds of mu.
tual interest and sympathy.
The magnitude of the idea and the'
novelty of an in'vitation addressed to
all the various nations, appealing to
them to enter into a friendly compel.-
ition of skill and -usefulness, at once
made the scheme popular,.
The building in which the MIxhibi.
tion of 1851 was as original in con-
struction and design as the scheme
itself. The colossal palace �f glass
and iron, which was ereeted in RYile
Park, was the conception of Joseph
Paxton, the head gardcber of the
Duke of Devonshire, who ingenu-
ity wts rewhrded with a knig'hilteed.
The building tovered an area et' over
18 atres, and contained 000)000

square feet of glass, which weighed
over 400 tons. The roof was support-
ed by 3,230 iron coluinns, which were
hollow and served as drain pipes to
carry off ram i water from 34 miles of
gutters. The structure, which was
erected in three months, at the cost
of nearly a million dollars, was 1848
feet long, 408 feet wide and 00 feet
high, while in the centre was a great
transept, 108 feet high, which enclos-
ed a grove of the park's elm trees.
The number of exhibitors exceed-
ed 17,000 of whom 3000 were award-
ed medals, and the Exhibition whieb
remained open for five and a half
months, attracted visitors from all
parts of the world, and was a great
financial success. The surplus pro-
ceeds of $750,000 were used to esta-
blish and endow the great institution
at South Kensington, which is known
as the Victoria and Albert Museum.
This was another project in which
the Prince was the prime mover. The
Museum contains the largest and fin-
est collection of appliedart in the
world, and its miles of galleries are
devoted to exhibits which demon-
strate the manner in which the arts
and sciences may be applied to the
various industries.
The tremendous success of the
Exhibition was mainly owing to the
energy and enthusiasm 6f the Prince,
and his strenuous work in connection
with its organization brought on sev-
ere attacks of insomnia, from which
he never recovered and which un-
doubtedly shortened his life.
At the conclusion of the Great Ex-
hibition the gigantic structure of
glass and iron was removed and re -
erected at Sydenham, on ,the out-
skirts of London where it still stands.
It is One of the most popular' show-
places in the British Empire, and is
world famous under its•name of the
Crystal Palace.

AND LOSES LIFE
William Jordan, City Employee,
Crushed To Death While Going to
Work — Wus Riding on Truck—
Lost His Balance as Machine Start
ed Away, and Dropped Under Veh-
icle
The Guelph Delay Mercury gives
the following account of the accident
and death of William 'Jordan, a for-
mer resident of Brussels. The Post
referred to the accident last week.
William Jordan, a city employee,
received frightful internal injuries
which resulted in his death ten min-
utes later, when he fell from the box
of Public Works truck No. 2, driven
by Aubrey Reptke, Earle Street, be-
neath the rear wheel of machine as
it turned from Norfolk Street East
onto Suffolk about eight -thirty this
morning. With four other city lab-
orers, Fred Wagstaffe, Fred Bell,
Thomas Nicholls and J. Davidson, he
was going to work, riding behind the
cab of the truck. He was perched
on the low metal side of the trucic
box and when the vehicle swung onto
Woolwich, he lost his balance and
fell to the pavement directly under.
the wheel.
Reptke felt the jolt as the wheel
passed over the man's body, and
brought his machine to a stop almost
instantly. The injured man was car-
ried to the office of a physician near-
by, and the ambulance conveyed him
to the General Hospital. He died
just as he was being wheezed into the
operating room at that institution.
The wheel of the truck twelve inches
wide and equipped with hard rubber
tire, passed obliquely over his body
from shoulder to knee, crushing him
internally, and breaking his right
arm.
Observed "Stop" Sign.
Reptke, the driver of the truck,
stated that he slowed his machine
down until the wheels were barely
turning when he approached the
"stop" sign at the intersection from
the south. He changed geers, and
was swinging around the turn at a
speed of about five miles an hour
when he felt the recumbent body of
Jordan. John Parnie, another corpor-
ation laborer, was in the cab with
him. The truck, unloaded, weighs
somewhere in the neighborhood of
three and a half tons, or smile 7,000
odd pounds.
Coroner Dr. T. H. Orton examin-
ed the body at the morgue at the
hospital this morning and decided
that an inquest was necessary. The
jury is meeting at McNiven's funeral
parlors, where the body was taken,
at four o'clock this afternoon, to view
the remains and elect a foreman.
They will then adjourn for an inquest
in the near future.
Was Steady Workman.
The deceased had been in the em-
ploy of the city for over six years,
and according to Foreman Joe Hall,
was one of the steadiest and best men
in the pay of the Public Works De-
partment Latterly he had been work-
ing on the Yarmouth Street sewer
job.
The late Mr, Jordan came to
Guelph several years ago. and was a
native of Luther Township, near
Grand Valley. He lived there and in
Garafraxa for many years, and for
some time resided in the West. He
was about 55 years of age. Besides

GLOVER APPEAL
IS DISMISSED
Mr. Justice Middleton Upholds Deci-
sion of Master -in -Chambers —
Glover to Pay Costs
(Wednesday's Toronto Telegram)
The appeal of T. J. Glover against
the decision of Charles Garrow, K.C.,
Master in Chambers, whose decision
was that Deputy Reeve W. Glen Arm-
strong and Councillor John J. Little
did not hire, or cause to be hired,
motor cars in their election campaign,
was heard yesterday before Mr. Jus-
tice Middleton in Osgoode Hall. After
hearing the argument of Mr. Glover
against the Master's decision, and an-
other from R. H. Greer, K.C.. counsel
for Armstrong and Little, in support,
his Lordship agreed with the latter
and dismissed the appeal with costs
to Mr. Glover.
In opening his argument, Mr.
Glover informed the judge that he
had two or three more witnesses
whom he would like to call and whose
evidence would be final. His Lord-
ship, would not consent to hear them
and Mr. Glover proceeded to repeat
the evidence given by the witnesses
before the Master. He contended that
he had proven Sykes, _Armstrong and
Little were running together and that
cars were sent to Oakwood and Vau-
ghan road and used in the election,
and were paid for by agents of
Sykes,
Mr. Glover declared that if Sykes
was guilty of a corrupt practice the
other two were equally guilty.
Master's Judgment Right
Mr. Greer read at length the judg-
ment handed down by the Master in
Chambers and contended that the de-
cision arrived at was the only one
that could have resulted from the
evidence.
In dismissing the appeal Mr. Jus-
tice Middleton said that he. had gone
carefully into the judgment given by
the Master in Chambers and that he
agreed with it, with the exception
that he thought the Master was
